The big kids had their turn, and they showed OUT! Our 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders took on Field Day today with smiles, teamwork, and tons of heart. We ended the day with grade level tug of war competitions, and let’s just say our 5th graders are walking away as CHAMPIONS! What an amazing way to celebrate a great year!

The hallways felt extra special yesterday! Our graduating Seniors came back to walk the halls one more time, and our students were READY to cheer them on! There is nothing quite like watching our littlest learners celebrate the ones who walked these same halls not so long ago. Wishing our Seniors all the best as they take on the world!
